Chapter 2 of “The Boy at the Back of the Class” introduces the main character, Ahmet, who is a refugee from Syria. The chapter explains that Ahmet has just started at a new school in London and is sitting at the back of the class. The other children are curious about him and want to know more about where he comes from.

The chapter also highlights the challenges that Ahmet faces as a refugee, such as not being able to speak English very well and feeling homesick for his family and friends in Syria. Despite these challenges, Ahmet is determined to make friends and fit in at his new school.

The chapter emphasizes the importance of kindness and empathy towards others, especially those who may be different from us. The other children in the class learn to be patient and understanding with Ahmet, and they work together to help him feel welcome.

Overall, chapter 2 of “The Boy at the Back of the Class” teaches us about the experiences of refugees and the importance of being kind and inclusive towards others. It encourages us to be curious about different cultures and to learn from each other’s differences.
